Always in the news Beyonce is a clever, sassy performer/writer who’s kept her audience on their feet for over a decade and is role model for her millions of fans the world over. Embarking on a global tour in 2013 she’s recently starred at the Superbowl, performed for President Obama and reformed Destiny’s Child for a series of showpiece theatrics. Although she’s married to JayZ she outpunches him in the bestseller stakes, writing and producing many of her own songs, including smash hits Jumpin Jumpin , Bootylicious , Nasty Girl , Independent Women , Happy Face and Apple Pie a la mode .
